I know I know. I've told quite a few that Sokka was next. oops. Review and enjoy anyways?


Yue: Destiny


It's like this:

Sometimes you choose your life. Other times your life chooses you.

"Princess Yue?"

"Yes Qi?"

"When...when you were human did you ever look up at the night sky?"

Yue paused.

"Every day." She looked at the small boy next to her.

"I used to sit and wonder how big the rest of the world was. How small was I, really? Where was my place?..."

"Really?"

"Yes. And now I am the moon, and perhaps some one else will gaze up at me. Maybe they will wonder the same thing."

"You never told me why you became the moon."

"I suppose I haven't wanted to until now."

"Do you not like it here? Do you hate us?"

Yue's face softened.

"No, no. I just didn't realize before. I had thought myself very brave and self-sacrificing before, When I first came here to the spirit world I thought this was all very heroic of me. I lied to myself. I didn't believe that I did this because I wanted too. I wanted to be bitter about leaving my loved ones behind, to never fulfill true love or just true like. I wanted to hate my unfortunate life of docility and untimely death for the sake of a world I would no longer be a part of...

The truth is, I was done looking at the sky. I wanted to be a part of it.

I am happy to continue the cycle of birth death and rebirth.

I am happy pulling the tides at my will.

I am the moon now. I was destined to be nothing less."


I looked it up and Qi is according to the translator one of the chinese words for star. Like Yue means 'moon'.

On a different note I am horribly addicted to The Hidden Strength Soap [an avatar AU on Live Journal. Like all soaps/ RP's it's addicting, trashy, amazing, and fun. and It contains every ship possible. Somehow...?

ps. Quick question. No fight starting here but, catch that look Katara gave after that whole moment in 310 pt one?

The side ways glace down? I wrote an essay about it on deviant art, and I was wondering what you all thought.

Esp. since even mike and bryan commented about it on the new dvd.

If you need I'll link to you, but I wanna know what my readers think. (?) Opinions?
